  • Tell me more about how I sound like maga because I called you a useless, ineffective twat for belittling people. Tell me more about how I sound like maga because I’m calling you out for being a xenophobe.

    Go on. Read my comment again. Tell me about how maga I sound.

    “Low-information, intellectually lazy idiots” that’s a lot of educated elitism for someone who claims to be further left than a liberal. Sounds to me like you’re an elitist snob.

    Fuck off and die.




  • god you anti-american losers are so fucking annoying. You are not unique and neither are your countries. They do all the same shit as America. It’s just popular to hate on Americans lmfao. Like can you stop being a fucking loser for just a second? Why are you belittling this person you know nothing about? Because they’re American? They’re literally on your side.

    Fuck America. Fuck an unfathomably large percentage of Americans. But to just lay into someone with some “told you so” smug attitude like your own shit doesn’t stink? Shut the fuck up and do something useful, you useless ineffective twat. Christ.




  • This thread is confusing because ChonkyOwlbear and TrickDacy are getting a lot of upvotes upfront, but they are both children with fingers in their ears shouting “nanana i dont hear you, democrats perfect, both sides narrative is bullshit”.

    They are ignoring the reality if what arrow74 said (we should primary these Dems from within the party and even failing that, they are preferable to republican candidates) and even after being proven wrong, continued to treat arrow74 like a liar who wanted to muddy waters on behalf of the republicans.

    It was just a crazy ignorant boomer moment for both of them. But I needed this comment further up so that more people could just see

    The context at the end of the thread without having to go all the way through.






  • Relating to my position is irrelevant. The core logic remains the same.

    You may not think it, but the logical conclusion of your position is either

    a.) it is okay to inflict suffering because I feel like it

    Or

    b.) I am not directly responsible for inflicting any suffering that my offspring goes through.

    Or

    c.) The quality of life I can provide for them supersedes/makes up for that suffering.

    A is strictly wrong, B is wrong by my standards, and C is entirely subjective and is ultimately a question that you don’t really know the answer to and you just feel that way. See A.

    But yes thank you I do not hope for any undue suffering in anyone’s life and I do not think that having children makes you due to suffer. But it is undoubtedly a selfish act in my book.




  • I’m not arguing against having children and I’m not saying you’re a bad person. But logically, saying “I can’t help what I feel” is not a valid reason to inflict suffering onto other people in any context.

    Similarly, I don’t want to fucking be alive anymore, but suicide is the action deemed “selfish”. But not the action of my parents to bring me into the world.

    I’m not saying you in particular, but yes, fuck society, reproduction is selfish and cruel, and just because you feel the way you do doesn’t make it any less so.

    I’m sorry for your children who may have to grow up in a doomed world. I hope they don’t. And I hope they don’t regret YOUR decision to give them life.


  • Because if someone doesn’t preface with the fact that they are referring to real, lived experiences and not twitter screenshots, then they are dismissed as being chronically online.

    The stuff you said? That’s how you read it and perceived it, but it’s not what is said. And it’s not my job when arguing with people about dumb internet shit to figure out and account for how an offhand refutal comment will come off.

    I also don’t care if I’m being rude or snide. If you feel belittled, then you are insecure. I’m just a random douchebag on lemmy whose direct opinion of you, you shouldn’t care about. So if you feel belittled, it’s your own fault. Block and move on.
